Maybe not immortal, but it seems to have 533 lives. Anybody who writes a C extension module for Python knows that Py_None is an object just like any other, and has to be treated the same in terms of managing its reference counts. (That’s how many unbalanced calls I had to make to Py_DECREF(Py_None) before it crashed Python.) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
